Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Hoyt Lakes escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
